Mourning in America: "Are you better off today than you were four years ago ?”

A Reagan ad from the 80's now has the DT's:

It's mourning again in America. Today more men and women won't go to work than ever before in our country's history. With employment rates at about triple the record highs of Obama's Presidency, nearly 2,000 more Americans today will die, more than at any time in the past even during War years. This afternoon 6,500 young men and women will be infected, and with the nation having less than half of the allies it did just four years ago, they can look forward to a blighted future. It's mourning the dead in America, and under the leadership of Trump, our country is poorer and sicker and deader. Why wouldn't we want to return to where we were less than four short years ago?

                             In Just Two Generations: From Sole Super Power to Pariah Among Nations.

The difference methinks could be no more stark   

 The world position we're in never more dark; 

Now every one of America's political structures 

Are manned by cronies, sycophants, and hucksters. 

This is the witching hour of the Great Baboon

Who loosed bedlam upon us like a mournful tune;

For his Sound of Music a death knell's tolled,  

As the tragedies of the commoners yet unfold. 

Friends he cajoles and enemies fires,

Hacks with no credentials is who he hires.

While through ranks of radical cranks he drudges

To find like-minded trolls he then appoints as judges.

Reagan made our beloved Democracy stronger,

DJ's shown it functions no longer;

One caused the Oval Office to flourish,

 the next made it petty, dark, and boorish.

While One caused the collapse of the USSR, 

Declaiming the Evil Empire had gone too far, 

The other, incessantly "MAGA" tootin',

Pays fawning obeisance to Vladimir Putin.

The one came to the rescue of Afghanistan,

Now DJ's handing it over to the Taliban,

Our fighting men, once honored as all first rate;

Are now derided as nefarious Deep State.

"Obama created ISIS!" was Trump's "J'accuse",

The proof of which was a lack of clues.

While RR negotiated with Tehran,

DJ tore up its anti-nuclear plan.

  "Sole Super Power":
Reagan made us Great Again.

Which status we still held in 2016 when

A malignant despicable odious worm

Took the helm, 

and now we've succumbed to a germ.

 "Are you better off today than you were four years ago ?”
